Freedom
March 31–April 3by Jonathan Franzen
There’s one scene in this one that hints of a payoff to an event that happened five books ago, and describes future events that are depicted on the cover of Book 13. The second half of this series moves pretty slowly. This one was pretty good though.
I’m writing this a month after I finished it, and I can’t remember anything that happened.
A city where channelling is impossible is a cool wrinkle, and it builds up to a fantastic ending
A little more active in the middle parts than Lord of Chaos, but a disappointing ending
The Goldfinch
September 13–20by Donna Tartt
Like the other Wheel of Time books, a long slow beginning, but this one didn’t pick up until the very end. Last scene was awesome but then I was wondering what happened in most the previous 950+ pages.
Last 200 pages of this one were great.
Better than the first Wheel of Time book. Really intense last quarter of the book.
